Scott McTominay has not been a regular starter under Erik ten Hag this season.
However, he became an instant hero when he scored a stunning brace during his cameo in the 2-1 win over Brentford. His goals spared Manchester United further blushes as the game appeared to head towards a depressing defeat.
As a result of his reduced game time, Scotty was linked with a departure from Old Trafford in January.
According to the Daily Star, McTominay is rated highly by Ten Hag, who considers him 'very important' to the squad.
The midfielder has also given his all in training, keeping his head down and doing the work despite a tough start to the season. All this has impressed Erik, meaning McTominay is going nowhere.
Scotty has plenty to offer to this squad, regardless of whether it's as a super sub or as a starter.
